Abstract: The present invention provides an intrinsically safe electrical outlet, which is fitted with a shell accommodating a live wire stub and a live wire conductive clip; a protective device is disposed on the live wire stub' the protective device has a shell, wherein there are a moveable connecting block and a return spring; when the pin of the plug is inserted into the electrical outlet, the connecting block is activated so that the live wire conductive clip is electrically connected with the live wire pin of the plug. As the live wire stub in the shell is enclosed in a protective device, the metal objects or other conductive bodies may not get contact with the live wire conductive clip and cause electric shock or leakage even if they are extended accidentally into the jack; satisfactory safety could be realized since the live wire conductive clip is electrically connected with the plug's live wire pin only when certain forced is applied to the plug pin and insert it into the jack.
